Dear Chris et al,
My guess is something needs ruby built as a build-time dependency, but
coot doesn't require it. In any case, I've got the latest version of
ruby built and anyone who needs it can download it from one of my
servers as described on this page:

That saves you the overhead of compiling stuff. You can just download
precompiled debian packages and have fink unpack them for you.
HTH,
Bill

I would like to install coot using fink, but am getting stuck when
it comes to installing ruby. Has anyone else experienced this
problem?
I've spent the afternoon doing a clean rebuild of a fink
installation on an iMac (Core 2 Duo) running Tiger 10.4.11, and the
process also died at updating ruby. Poking around on Google yields
several people with the same problem, but none with a solution. The
fink-devel mailing list saw the problem yesterday, so a fix may be
forthcoming soon.
